At minimum use hoto

But should be using white. Damage is going to be your biggest problem. Using a weapon that doesn’t increase your damage is a good path to failure in a build that already lacks damage


yes but also necro has no resists so im fine with a bit of damage loss. Hoping that stacked thorns Edge+bramble merc makes up for the dmg loss. CE will still be king on big mob packs.

agree or disagree?

dont do it, pnb necro is trash in pvm and a waste of reset token


Free reset its new necro toon, still have 3 akara resets.

I dont support ROTW and giving money to blizzard.

This is expansion nonladder only.


Doesn't the fact that you have D2R imply that money went to Blizzard to get you the game?...

I cried when they took it away from us. And I had forgotten about this abuse they made us suffer.... why must you remember me of this ancient trauma :(

You guys also told me not to do Druid Summoner and that is a really good build I would play for high levels, even in P8 after my testing.

Also this is just for experimenting with builds that I never played before, will not take it serious if it fails like you guys keep saying.

I found out summoner necro sucked as well, nobody really said anything about that one xD

If you are coming off a necro summoner, the bs/ce magic necro is tons of fun to play. A single point in lvl 6 dimvision curse with any skills turns the necro into a mere tourist gallivanting through sanctuary.

Kill with piercing spear, curse, BOOM, rinse and repeat.

Safe and fun. No teleport required. 125%fcr for bone spear is almost required. Easily achievable with base gear and Hellwardens Will, but if not RotW, then you need 15%fcr from your helm and/or ammy.

Go for it brother!

It's possible to max res with bone necro even when using 8/6white wand or void if fcr is a problem. Merc flickering flame. Tri res boots. Resist fcr amulet + 2/20 necro helm with resist. Hellwarden is bis but then cap resist is impossible without other damage sacrifices.
Build is fun...you're hopeless against high tier heralds but other than that, it works. Glhf

P.s. insight iron golem solves your mana issues but hard to max bone skills and they die so freaking fast that you need multiple backup insights. Clay golem means potting a lot unless you sacrifice your merc weapon (I use infi).

i dont care about heralds ai slop reskins. im playing non-rotw expansion nonladder, just need enough dmg to be viable. i will be testing bone tomorrow. I do not support the blizzard cash grab.
